    My sister and I found a few of these little guys washed up on the beach. If it has the hair on it it’s alive and should be left in the ocean. If not then it’s dead and is okay to keep(just check local laws first since some beaches don’t allow any part of an animal dead or alive to be collected)

    Hi. These little creatures are amazing. I used to see them on beaches I went around where I live, but recently I haven't seen them and I'm very worried. Does anyone know if they're alright, if I can do something, can anyone tell if it's the sea pollution? Or is it me looking in the wrong places? What is their favorite place? Does it have to do with the type of sand? Does anyone noticed it too? Do they migrate? Thanks.

      That's just an evolutionary remnant from when they were regular, ball-shaped sea urchins. In sea urchins those bands (called ambulacra) run from top to bottom like meridians on a globe; and the slits are where the tube feet come out from. As the dollars began to flatten during evolution, the bands were reduced to that flower shape, concentrated around what would have been the "north pole" of a regular spherical sea urchin. In sand dollars the ambulacra are called petaloid areas.
